***SAFE 03/06/16 *** STUNNING! “A volunteer writes: Brutos is a big, black cat with a huge head and a big heart. His behavior evaluation calls for an experienced cat companion, perhaps because he is a bit particular about humans sticking their hands in his kennel and rearranging things. He sleeps in the front of his kennel, and he perks right up when you open the door and reach for his litter box. But I discovered that he really doesn’t mind you taking it out and giving him a new one, as long as you pet him, too. Brutos does meow a lot. I’m not sure why, but this morning it might have been that he was hungry for his breakfast. After I fed him, he meowed again and I decided to pet him. Brutos really did seem to enjoy my soft talk and gentle stroking of his big head and neck. But after all is said and done, I think that what he really wants and needs is to be a real cat again, by which I mean that Brutos needs to get out of a shelter kennel and into a whole apartment or house with lots of space to explore and move around in. He is, after all, a big boy with a big personality.” Please share this king of personality for a foster/adopter tonight!
